Yes.

You don’t understand how dead and foreclosed corporate social media appears to me if that surprises.

I don’t like feeling like I am a tree being fed into a woodchipper.

I never fit in on corporate social media and after facebook I never found another corporate digital community that structurally felt like home (not just the vibe like Bluesky or Threads which are such false promises it physically hurts).

However the corporate social media platform that has isolated me the most and hurt my vim for life most deeply is Discord and it isn’t even close.

I consider myself literally in a battle of life and death fighting the tide of Discord because I am not welcome there, my infodumps and tangents categorically are rejected by the format, the kinds of conversations I want to have are always drowned out and chat topics are so overly specific and narrow there is nothing to discover in the first place.

Edit I watch a lot of Youtube so I guess I can’t say yes but I have a peertube creator account and I am in it for the long haul so shrugs it is what it is.
